Creating a Named VLAN
You can create, update, and delete a named VLAN. Each named VLAN has a name and needs to have one or
more VLANs assigned to it. The following configurations create a named VLAN called mygroup. It has the
assignment type Even, and VLAN IDs 2, 4 and 12 are assigned to this named VLAN.
ArubaOS supports maximum of 256 VLANs per named VLAN.
In the WebUI

2. Select the VLAN Pool tab to open the VLAN Pool window.
3. Click Add.
4. In the VLAN Name field, enter a name that identifies this named VLAN.
5. In the Assignment Type field, select Hash or Even from the drop-down list. See Distinguishing Between
Even and Hash Assignment Types on page 102 for information and conditions regarding Hash and Even
assignment types.
The Even named VLAN assignment type is only supported in tunnel and decrypt-tunnel modes. It is not supported in
split or bridge modes. It is not allowed for named VLANs that are configured directly under a virtual AP (VAP). It must
only be used under named VLANs. L2 Mobility is not compatible with the existing implementation of the Even named
VLAN assignment type.

each ID separated by a comma. You can also click the drop-down list to view the IDs, then select a VLANID
to add it to the pool.
VLAN pooling should not be used with static IP addresses.
